About My Clients
My clients are driven, sensitive and interested in gaining a deeper understanding of themselves. They are stressed by people-pleasing and overthinking. When many of my clients come to me, they’ve become stuck in a cycle of anxiety, shame, and distrust of their own inner knowing or intuition. I collaborate with clients to develop relationships with themselves and others that make them feel connected and whole instead of burnt out and in survival mode.
My Background and Approach
I teach you how to quiet negative thoughts and anxiety and start having a deeper understanding and appreciation of yourself instead. My background is in clinical social work with individuals and families, and I'm here to tell you that *nothing* is wrong with you! I help folks untangle old beliefs and negative messaging that is holding them back from feeling seen, heard, and aligned with what they want in life. I work exclusively through video sessions with clients across Michigan. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Social Work and a bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Michigan State University, and have trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Sandtray Therapy and Psychoanalytic Theory from Michigan Council for Psychoanalysis & Psychotherapy (MCPP). I also have a certificate in BodyTalk Access, a somatic-based treatment, and am currently pursuing certification in Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) from the Association of Comprehensive Energy Psychology.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
All of you is welcome in our co-created therapy space, as politics, gender identity, sexual orientation and racism are deeply intersectional with mental health. An important part of therapy is getting curious about our unexamined beliefs about ourselves, others & the world. The messages we can internalize about ourselves often no longer serve us and can be toxic. By exploring these messages, we get clarity and gain freedom from shame.
